Bahrain

BAHRAIN

Bahrain is a small cluster of islands, situated between the Qatar peninsula and the north eastern coast of Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA), to which it is connected by a 25 km causeway. A beautiful island in the Persian Gulf with its warm waters and sandy beaches providing you with a holiday destination on your doorstep. You can sail, dolphin watch, fish, scuba dive or kite surf. On land, there are gyms, horse riding stables and sports clubs including rugby, tennis, soccer, cricket, golf and basketball. From North to South, it is forty-eight kilometres long at its widest point in the North; it is sixteen kilometres from East to West. The quality of life was rated among the top 5 in the world by the HSBC expat poll in 2014. Bahrain is a popular weekend destination for those working in the Eastern region of KSA with entry formalities usually taking no more than 60 minutes.

Benefits include:

One-year contract renewable

Airline tickets are provided at beginning and end of contract

Free Furnished Accommodation and utilities provided

Free Bus Transportation is provided to and from the hospital for members of staff who do not own a car

Yes. Public transportation is not very reliable and private taxis can be expensive. There are plenty of opportunities to both lease and buy a car in Bahrain. Insurance is cheap, petrol is inexpensive and the vehicles themselves are generally reasonably priced.

Though Bahrain is a Muslim nation, modernity and liberalism have been much more integrated into society than in neighbouring countries like KSA and Qatar.

Expat women dress in western clothes in public spaces, and generally speaking, what is appropriate in your home country is appropriate in Bahrain. Mosques are the only places where strict principles apply; women must wear an abaya and men must wear long pants and long sleeve shirts.
